data types            Technical Information            data types




The  following table  gives the data  types that  COHERENT recog-
nizes:


          char
          double
          float
          int
          long
          long float
          long int
          short
          short int
          unsigned int
          unsigned long int
          unsigned long
          unsigned char
          unsigned short
          unsigned short int


The terms  long and long  int, as are  the terms short  and short
int,  double and  long  float, unsigned  short  int and  unsigned
short, and  unsigned long  int and  unsigned long.  The  type un-
signed char  was added to the language by  the ANSI Standard; be-
cause COHERENT  uses signed chars by default,  you must declare a
char to  be unsigned if  you want it  to be so.  If  this type is
used in  arithmetic expressions, it is  automatically cast to un-
signed int.
